[0031] The first meniscus lens 1, the first cemented lens 2, the second cemented lens 3, the second meniscus lens 4, the third cemented lens 5, and the third meniscus lens 6 are arranged sequentially from the object plane to the image plane. The first meniscus lens 1 and the first cemented lens 2 form the front fixed group, and the second cemented lens 3, the second meniscus lens 4, the third cemented lens 5, and the third meniscus lens 6 form the rear fixed group.

[0032] In one specific embodiment, the air gap between the first meniscus lens 1 and the first cemented lens 2 is 0.25 mm, the air gap between the first cemented lens 2 and the second cemented lens 3 is 7.95 mm, the air gap between the second cemented lens 3 and the second meniscus lens 4 is 0.85 mm, the air gap between the second meniscus lens 4 and the third cemented lens 5 is 0.35 mm, and the air gap between the third cemented lens 5 and the third meniscus lens 6 is 8.85 mm.

The parameters of all lenses are as follows:

[0033]

[0034] Aperture 7 is disposed between the front fixing group and the rear fixing group;

[0035] The frame 8, the front fixing group, the aperture 7, and the rear fixing group are all fixed inside the frame 8; guide pins 9 are provided on the outside of the frame 8.

[0036] The main tube 10 is located outside the frame 8 and is provided with an axial cam groove 11;

[0037] A rotating ring 12 is disposed on the outer side of the front side of the main cylinder 10 and is provided with an inclined groove 13; for example Figure 3 As shown, the guide pin 9 is sequentially inserted into the axial cam groove 11 and the inclined groove 13. The guide pin 9 is driven to move axially in the axial cam groove 11 by the inclined groove 13 of the rotating ring 12, thereby causing the lens frame 8 to move back and forth relative to the main tube 10 at the same time to achieve focusing.

[0038] In one possible implementation, a focusing ring 14 is also included, which is fixedly connected to the rotating ring 12, and the rotating ring 12 is driven to rotate by rotating the focusing ring 14.

[0043] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0044] Telephoto imaging is achieved by setting a front fixed group consisting of a set of meniscus lenses and cemented lenses on the object side of the aperture 7, and a rear fixed group consisting of two sets of meniscus lenses and cemented lenses on the image side of the aperture 7. Rotating the focusing ring 14 drives the rotating ring 12, causing the inclined groove 13 of the rotating ring 12 to move the guide pin 9 axially within the axial cam groove 11. This allows the lens frame 8 to move the front fixed group, aperture 7, and rear fixed group simultaneously relative to the main tube 10, achieving fast and accurate focusing. The first motor 15 drives the focusing ring 14 to rotate in both directions via the focusing cam 16 to achieve automatic focusing. The second motor 17 is connected to the aperture 7 to achieve automatic aperture adjustment.

[0045] This invention achieves telephoto imaging by setting up a front fixed group consisting of a first meniscus lens and a first cemented lens, and a rear fixed group consisting of a second cemented lens, a second meniscus lens, a third cemented lens, and a third meniscus lens. At the same time, the front and rear fixed groups and the aperture are all fixed on the lens frame. By rotating the guide pins and slots, the telephoto lens assembly and the aperture move back and forth relative to the main tube simultaneously, thereby achieving focusing. Since the entire lens assembly and the aperture move simultaneously, focusing is fast and accurate.

[0046] While specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that the specific embodiments described are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Equivalent modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art in accordance with the spirit of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
